exactly, beats the hell out of a car with 125K miles on it that was falling more apart everyday.

this car has got 1500 miles on it (bought it with 5) and isn't going to be doing any "breaking" anytime soon.

yes I bought a Saturn and I am very happy.

oh and as far as the Ecotec goes, its definitely got potential. More than the zetec IMO...I've got a more powerful engine in a lighter car than the zetec Contour. 2.2L 140HP/148TQ is still slow but a step up from the zetec.

And I just missed out on the optional 2.4L 170HP engine that comes in the 06's.

I know its a GM and how most Ford people get their panties in a bunch over them but don't hate

I'm not feeling the wheels either, I don't know what Saturn was thinking.

Wheel choices are so damn hard though...the first thing I'm going to do is Sprint lowering springs and Koni struts then I will move on to wheels.

But I don't know whether I want to go 16" or 17". All I know is that I want something lightweight and something with a nice polished lip on it and probably in black.

Any suggestions?

here's a quick lesson:
= sarcasm
= friendly and sincere

i like saturns and never once said a bad thing about them (other than that retarded centered cluster. hell, even the color is growing on me).
